Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 121

Chapter 121, Little Steward

Ricky, the little steward, was surprised.

“What are you doing now?”

He was not blind, he could see that Ossena’s status here was not low.

“Uh… I am considered a little steward.” That was all Ossena could say.

The clerk who was about to go out to hand in the materials laughed out loud.

“Little” steward.

Your eldest lady is now the head of the production department directly appointed by the governor. In the case that all other civil affairs departments have not been established and have not been actually appointed, you can be regarded as the actual highest civil affairs director of the entire Fuxing City. Is

this also called a “little” steward?

Hearing the laughter, Ossena glared at the clerk fiercely.

The clerk smiled at her and yo-yoed quickly.

Retracting her gaze, she smiled awkwardly at Ricky: “My colleague is not very sensible…”

“No need to explain more.”

Even if Ricky is not a smart person, at least he has been in the wasteland for a long time. If he can’t see some things, he would be too stupid.

His attitude became a little restrained.

The two used to be familiar with each other.

On the way to Fuxing City, Ossena actually traveled with Ricky’s team. During the escape and the period of time in Fuxing City, she received a lot of help from Ricky.

Ricky was not helping her specifically, but he was a rare person who valued fairness and loyalty. On the way to escape, including after settling in a small block in Fuxing City, having this was a great help to Ossena, a little girl who was trying to survive with her brother.

Of course, since they were not related, the help only went so far. Later, Ossena took her brother away from Fuxing City.

Ricky said, “Before, someone said that they heard your speech and that you became a clerk under the governor. I was happy for you. But I didn’t expect that you were more than just a clerk.”

“At that time, I heard that you and your brother drank a bowl of porridge and were taken to the governor’s camp. I thought you were deceived. After all, where in the world can such a good thing happen? But I didn’t expect that I was short-sighted. You are living a good life now, that’s enough.”

Ossena smiled: “You are not living a very good life. I haven’t slept for two days. Besides, this time I asked Uncle Ricky to come here for a serious matter.”

“What is the serious matter you are talking about?” Ricky seemed very cautious. He was a little afraid of falling into a trap.

But Ossena had already hurriedly pulled out a rough plan from the pile of papers under the table.

“Look at this.”

“This is…” Ricky took a quick look. Although he didn’t quite understand many of the detailed parameters on the plan, he quickly had an impression just by looking at the plan above: “Is this our block? But…” It

has changed a lot!

But if you want to do this, how much money will it cost?

“Don’t be so indecisive.” Ossena said, “In my impression, Uncle Richie is not the kind of indecisive person. Let me be frank. I didn’t call you here just to reminisce about the past. As you can see, I have a lot of work to do now and I’m very busy. I asked you to come here because I hope you can help me.”

“How can I help you…” Richie instinctively wanted to refuse.

Everything was too unknown, and he didn’t want to step in without knowing everything.

However, Ossena waved her hand.

She was no longer the tough girl in the past, or rather, her inner toughness had not changed, but she had understood that sometimes, in order to achieve her goals, she needed to show this toughness on the outside.

She said with some certainty: “Uncle Ricky, don’t refuse me. Your prestige in the neighborhood and your good reputation can provide me with great help. I am now short of people to do things, and I need helpers who are reliable enough in both character and ability to help me speed up the work.”

“This matter is not only my business, and it is not only the governor’s order, but also for the benefit of the people of the entire city. Even if you don’t look at other aspects, just look at the neighborhood we originally lived in. Do you want to go back to your previous life, or do you want to live in the house drawn in my blueprint?”

Ricky said helplessly: “Then you definitely want to live in the house you drew…”

“Then come and help me. I promise that you can move in. Just working for me and working in the new government will be enough work points for you to live in a house. And your work will help more people move in, and I promise that you will become a more respectable person in the future.”

“It seems that I have no choice.”

“Yes, you have no choice.” Ossena smiled and stretched out her hand, and continued to the man in front of her, “But I promise you will not regret it, never.”

“Okay.” Ricky sighed and continued, “What do you want me to do specifically?”

“Find more reliable people, organize the team, and do things more efficiently according to our plan. Let everyone understand and believe that what we are doing now is for our better life tomorrow. In this regard, our political commissars, those red hats, will help you. But our people don’t know enough about the situation in Fuxing City. We need locals like you to organize the team, distribute food, and supervise the progress of the work…”

She began to talk to Ricky about the specific matters in detail.

Ricky was also listening very carefully.

…

In fact, the people that Ossena found were not just Ricky.

In the process of clearing the ruins and rebuilding the city, Ossena encountered too many problems.

She has counted the manpower needed by the factories and businesses that need to resume work in the city. She hopes that the corresponding workers and employees will go back to work.

And a large number of people who have no jobs or whose jobs have been ruined by the disaster have temporarily changed their jobs to construction workers. Through the method of work-for-relief, the city’s infrastructure was also built.

But when it came to the need for more refined management, Ossena found that her control was not enough.

She did not have enough manpower to pass on her ideas and plans to every construction team and every area. When she was making a series of plans, she also lacked manpower to help her.

Now, this problem is not particularly prominent. In the process of rescue and disaster relief, the army, which remained organized, helped her. But this situation obviously cannot continue for a long time.

She has to set up an administrative team.

Among the poor in the outer city, people with good character and reputation, people with reputation, people with professional ability… Ossena tried hard to pull these people out and fill them into her own administrative structure.

But this is not enough.

Among the poor in the outer city, people like herself who have a relatively good educational background are really a minority, but there are many more in the inner city.

In this regard, she has already gone to Lambert.
